In My Dreams With You – English Lyrics
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
I'm watchin' you, I'm wantin' you, but you turn away
I'd crawl through broken glass to you, but it wouldn't pay
You take me for a fool, oh, but if you only knew
What I do in my dreams with you
You're so cold and critical
And baby that's too bad
So my reality
Will have to come to me in my dreams
And I know that you belong to me every night
You suddenly appear in my eyes, it happens when I sleep
It isn't right, what I do in my dreams with you (in my dreams with you)
It isn't right, what I do in my dreams with you (free my soul)
...
I love the way you come to me every night
My fantasies are real, and they never lie
If you only knew what I do in my dreams with you, yeah
Isn't right, Lord, knows that it isn't right
The world can make you cynical
With all it's love and its pain
But I don't have to carry
The weight of the world
'Cause I know that you belong to me every night
You suddenly appear in my eyes, it happens when I sleep
It isn't right, what I do in my dreams with you (soul)
It isn't right, what I do in my dreams with you, you, you (no, no)
...
Baby, don't wake me, let me take you on an endless journey
We touch, and the softest kiss explodes with lust, yeah
And it's real, you can't deny the heat you feel
And if I die before I wake, baby, that's alright (baby, that's alright)
'Cause I know that you belong to me every night
You suddenly appear in my eyes, it happens when I sleep
It isn't right, what I do in my dreams with you (baby, oh baby)
It isn't right, what I do in my dreams with you (in my dreams)
I know that you belong to me every night
You suddenly appear in my eyes, it happens when I sleep
It isn't right, what I do in my dreams with you (my fantasy, my dream)
It isn't right, what I do in my dreams with you
And I know that you belong to me every night
You suddenly appear in my eyes, it happens when I sleep
It isn't right, what I do in my dreams with you
It isn't right, what I do in my dreams with you
...
